Say No to President Bush's Extreme Federal Judicial Nominee
Target: U.S. SenateSponsored by: NARAL Pro-Choice America
Richard Honaker, a former Wyoming state representative, is President Bush's pick for a lifetime appointment as a federal judge. Honaker is one of Bush's most anti-choice nominees to date. He has spent his career fighting to deny women access to safe, legal reproductive-health services. And now Bush has nominated him for a lifetime appointment as a federal judge.
At this pivotal time in history, it's so important that an open and fair-minded federal judge be appointed - not someone bent on interfering with women's personal choices. Send your message telling the Senate that Bush's anti-choice nominee, Richard Honaker, is too extreme for the federal bench!

ANYONE Bush nominates/appoints has absolutely no scruples. Their proslytization of the "right" way to live your life seems to be biting them on their hindquarters. The hypocrisy is amazing. NO, NO, NO to anymore of the Bushies. I shudder to think.

Let President Bush's daughters have to face this judges decisions in a court of law......Or does Bush think his family will not have to abide by the same rules as the rest of us? The sooner Bush is out of office the better off this entire nation will be!

Please try to block ALL of Bush's judicial appointments. He's done enough damage already to our country. Every appointment he makes is suspect, and should be scrutinized very severely.

The decision to end a pregnancy is difficult. The person carrying the fetus – the woman, should make this decision. Man should be allowed to express opinion in whether a pregnancy should be terminated or not, but ultimately, since a man can not carry a fetus, it is the woman’s decision on what she would like to do with her body. Period.

It is ridiculous at this time in history to continue to allow this administration to shove anti choice judges into America's legal system. With abstinence now being taught instead of science and birth control, unwanted pregnancy and teen pregnancy is surging again. This is not rocket science. Do we want to go back to the days of dangerous, back alley abortions? It makes no sense. Education, and legal abortion are critical in a free nation. We are almost done with the horrors this administration has inflicted upon us and the rest of the world, don't let them sneak in lifetime appointments here in the final hours.

Everything Pres. Bush does from here on, will be considered bad. The hole is too deep to climb out of. What does he have to gain? What a legacy.The worst Pres ever.

As a woman and a women's health nurse practitioner I believe the autonomy of a woman over her body and her future must be protected. Although there are several options available to a woman who becomes pregnant, early abortion is still a valid option for some women. Their options should not be limited due to another's viewpoint or personal beliefs. I oppose the nomination of Richard Honaker.

Lame-duck president - it is the only thing he still has some power over (appointments). Too bad, he should send his daughters to live under this man's rulings.
